Counter/Cabinet Depth Refrigerator Help

Does anyone have experience with Fisher & Paykel refrigerator.

I am looking for a counter depth refrigerator and it appears my options are limited because I don't like SS or water/ice in the door. I also have height restriction of less than 69" to keep my OTF cabinet the same height as my pantry. Width is not an issue. I also don't need alot of interior space for fridge/freezer. Current 20 CF is never full.

Hope you're all having a happy holiday

Re: Counter/Cabinet Depth Refrigerator Help

Not too sure on F&P ... for other appliances, their early dishdrawers had a lot of issues (though the current lineup did improve), and getting service/replacement parts isn't as easy or readily available as the domestic brands.

Though not counter depth, there are a some Amana and Maytag w/top freezers that are under 29" deep - just about an inch difference between some others that are noted as "counter depths". Checking AJMadison, they're $600-700 for either a 19 or a 22 cu.ft. in white.

To some extent, height can be dealt with by readjusting the feet and rehanging the fridge cabinet. Last resort, though, I know.

For anyone thinking of moving the pantry cabinet out ... that won't work, as the front is pretty much right up next to the door frame already.

We have the counter depth Jenn Air and it is PERFECT. We had the Exact same problem as you and found that this was as slim as they get (depth wise that is) without paying an arm and a leg for a true built in.
